" What actually bring you here? " he asked and Julie said she had come to register for the national identification number.
Julie asked, now wat also brings you here?
Same as your reason to wy you're here.
They talked for a while and they introduced their names and the guy was called Jaim Kypton.
Later the local chief came and they exchanged pleasantries. According to observation the man was in his late fifties or early sixties.
He asked them the purpose for the visit and Julie talked first that she had come for registration. Same applies to Jaim so there was no need to reapet the answer.
" Have you brought the photo copy of any of your parents ld? " the local chief questioned Julie.
" Not really, l had bought the original but let me go outside and have a photo copy in it. " Julie answered while getting up heading outside .
To her surprise, Jaime stood up as soon as she stood up.
" Oh __my, the killer poshon is following me, is he having a crush on me? or am l thinking to much." Julie thought as she increased her pase but also Jaime increased his while muttering. " Hey , Julie wait for me.
She suddenly stopped and turned asking him wy was he following her. " Me too p want to have a photo copy from my parent's ld, so wait for me and we go together. " he lied coz he already had it.
They went to the nearest stationary and photocopied the ld but Jaime persisted that Julie should escort him to get a drink.
They walked via the street while Julie pointed on each and every shop to vo there for the drink but he said he has a particular shop were he gets his milk shake from.
After half an hour, they came back to the office.
Julie's mind went black due to the people who had lined up for registration.
She tried to suppress her shock at that moment through putting her palm on her mouth.
What is she going to tell the people at home that she was doing to come back home so late. Obviously she was going to become late for home go wait for all those people to get finished, yet by the time she came with Sergio no one was there and it's a must that he told them .
" Hey, Hey Jaime's magnificent voice snapped Julie out of the thoughts of how she is going to explain all this mess home. It seemed as if he had been calling her for a long time but she was in another world.
Oh, am sorry my mind had wondered about how we are gonna make it to the office coz l have lots of errands at home, Julie explained to him afew coz she doesn't open up go every one she finds like a girl of intergrity.
C,mon Julie, l hope you have got maids to do the errands and school is yet to resume, so we can use this time to know each other better while waiting for these people to get done. Jaime coaxed her pulling out the chairs for them to seat.
Julie saw via this plan that it was not a bad one but she doesn't want to make a bad impression at the new home so she had to do anything possible to get home early. Though Jaime's beauty was irresistible, she never answered him but by_passed him and went to enter the office.
She knocked on the door, " May l talk to you sir. " she said and all the people who had lined up in the sunshine very tired gave her penetrating look.
For Jaime was left wondering what he had done to her, even after her weird behavior, he could remove his sight from this breathtaking girl, " Julie ".
" Go ahead with wat you want to tell me. " the local chief commanded.
Julie said, " well you had told me to go and photo copy the ld but am done.
The local chief answered a simple uhmm and told her to join the line from behind.
Julie shrank in embarrassment while uttering," Bu_ but l was the first one here.
" But you delayed and others came so it's u fault not mine , " the local cheif answered.
She walked away upto were Jaime's was settled.
He was having a smile bent busy engulfed in his mobile.
She wondered what was making him smile yet he had immediately turned to his phone, pretending yet he was smiling that she had come back to seat with her .
" Have they refused you to enter and register, you see my idea was quite good. " Jaime boasted of his idea without raising from his mobile to look at her.
" Who told you that, they have told me go hold on alittle bit, they will have to call me but quote me right in bold letters that they have not refused me. " Julie answered him half yelling, hissing via her teeth.
Jaime shook his head to how stubborn this girl is.
" Ok l see, l have never encountered such a stubborn girl like you, but I can help you to register hurriedly. " Jaime spoke his thoughts aloud.
Oh, now you have seen one but, okay l give you the chance to help me.
Hahahaha, Julie you have said u are giving me a chance yet am the one giving it to you anyway l don't give a damn about that now. Jaime spoke with sarcasm.
" Okay wat a thinking about helping me.".she now asked in a calmer voice though still irritated that his the cause of all this.
" You will have to give your mobile number so as l help you out. " Jaime muttered.
" l don't have a mobile phone." Julie sighed audibly while having a seat beside Jaime.
" Did you loose your phone unknowingly or did they steal it? " he questioned and Julie nodded symbolising non of that is true.
Jaime told her to tell her something instead of keeping quiet and she told her she doesn't have one.
" Okay, from here l am going to buy u one and l have your number and we talk. " he said.
Is he serious or joking with me. wow he's so generous but no, it can't be, no one is good without any motive. she thought.
" No, l don't want your help, and wy do you want to help me, if you are thinking of anything ill, l won't comprehend at any moment. " Julie stated.
Julie, l don't have any other motive just helping you coz you are my friend, don't u remember we became friends, Jaime explained.
Okay l have made up my mind l wont accept your offer of the phone but first help me with this registration, Okay, she shot back.
Me too l won't help if u not accept my offer.

The car came to halt, Jaime helped Julie to open the car door and she alighted from it.
" I could open the door for myself, am not disabled. " Julie retorted and Jaime gave a nod.
She bid him a good bye and she walked towards the masion wondering what she is to lie about the phone.
But she decided to hide it, she is not ready to face the insults on the first day at the grand's place.
